Adelaide wasn't a prison colony should've been, because it's terrible (and weirdly full of serial killers?)

I dunno maybe its cultural but where I live it seems most people under 30 claim they can't cook and if I mention I fried some loving eggs for breakfast people go "wow wish I could do that" I've also met people who are like 35 (men and women) and only eat off disposable plates and poo poo cuz they're scared of doing dishes so i think some people are just hopeless.

Malcolm Turnbeug posted:See that’s the Gold Coast for me. I always assumed Adelaide was at least a little bit normal bc they grow grapes there. Let’s just say the entire coastline is the hot sweaty rear end Most of Australia's population is on the coast. So, yes. I think the difference is that the Gold Coast is tropical, so you get a really humid kind of heat there even if it isn't actually hotter. But Adelaide's in a pretty perpetual drought state, so inevitably a heat you get there is a very dry heat.

I'll still do dishes when necessary, but spending an average of like a dollar a month on paper plates works out okay for me besides the vague guilt about the waste.Incidentally I didn't properly take the minute it took to figure out frying rather than scrambling eggs until I was 30.

Let me clarify: it took until I was 30 to figure out aesthetically pleasing fried eggs.

You should definitely be able to wash all of your own clothes, but keeping track of what pieces of other people's clothing goes into the dryer and what has to hang dry and what's a delicate? Meh. Make them do their own laundry. This is why I don't have to do laundry anymore. I put one too many shirts that looked indistinguishable from any other poo poo in the dryer. The trade off is my other half never has to clean a litter box in exchange for me never having to do laundry

As a kid I had one but my mother had us use it as a dish rack and told me and my siblings it was busted which we only found out as adults was a weird lie she told so we wouldn't use it. No one still got a good answer why she hates dishwashers but to this day she won't use one.

Home dishwashers are a hell of a lot more efficient now than they used to be so I wouldn't be surprised if it was just the same sort of penny-pinching mindset as the dad stereotypes re: lights.

We had a dishwasher but my parents made my siblings and I hand wash all the dishes before they were put in the dishwasher. No clue. Perfectly clean handwashed dishes then put through the dishwasher for...quality assurance? Still confused by that. I should call my mom and ask her what the gently caress.

My parents built the house I grew up in hoping to rent it out, so they included a dishwasher that they never intended to use. One time guests stayed with us and helped out by loading it up after a meal. We discovered the moldy dishes there months later when we thought to open it up. My mother now uses the dishwasher to store her recycling bins as if it's extra under-sink cabinet space.

Cooking at its basic level is just basic arithmetic and reading. If you can’t do that then I guess please die off. (Please note: I love cooking and know there is a LOT more to understanding how to cook WELL, or make really tasty food, etc. but anyone who can read and knows Arabic numerals and addition can loving cook SOMETHING)

My mother considers conveniences such as dishwashers and laundry machines God's gifts to humanity. The thought of her never using them or never letting us use them is really alien to me

One of the weird things about the Instant Pot craze, was I really think it just tricked people into cooking. Like I finially got one on black Friday 2 years into it being popular and looked up some recipies and like 98% of them dont need a pressure cooker and 75% of them they pressure cooker does not save any time. If you let the pressure lower naturally you are not saving time. 2. Coming up to pressure takes way longer than I though, you got 15 minutes on each drat side! Simmer for 30 minutes is a lot. Recipies are like. 1. Make a sauce remove 2. Sautee vegies remove 3. Pressure cook meat 4. Add stuff back. Like yeah you can do it with this but why am I not using 3 pans on a stove like an adult? I really think it tricked people into cooking for themselves, but here's the catch. That's a GOOD THING. I'm annoyed when I hear people bought a second smaller instantpot to cook 2 things together when they own a freaking pot. But whematever, they are cooking! The absolute best thing it does is hydrate dry beans. Its outstanding from chic peas to pintos. That IS annoying manually and like 1-2 hours in a insta.

I think communal refractories are the best way to handle people who can't cook. I can do basic stuff like roasted veggies and scrambled eggs, but I'd much rather have someone actually good/interested in cooking do the work, I'll wash dishes or whatever.
